HAED QS Coral Addiction ~ updated 19th Sept 2012...

Post by Sandz27 »

Hi Everyone.
I wanted to show you my HAED that I am working on :)

Here is what it will eventually look like:
Image

Artist: Ching-Chou Kuik
Count and color of fabric: Polstitches 28 count opalescent Shimmering Seas
How many threads you are using: 2
Over 2 or over 1: 2 over 1

I had the background removed however because I am stitching Coral on hand dyed fabric...here is where I am currently at:
Image

I hope that you will keep an eye on this thread as I update it through my HAED journey :)

:applesauce: Great stitching. And the fabric is beautiful so you certainly don't need the background. :applesauce:

When you said what the fabric was I thought 'Oh no, it's going to be hidden under stitching!!' but having the background removed is just perfect!! :wub:

Thanks for all your lovely comments! :oops:

You can get the background removed on any HAED ~ I wanted to use up some fabric that I had and then I spotted "Coral", the colours blew me away to begin with and I already had the perfect "sea" coloured fabric so I requested the background to be removed when I purchased the chart :)

Hehe...I did a bit more yesterday and am nearing that page at the bottom (under her chin) being finished...I'll update again when that page is actually complete!
